This is fully exact, as far as I know, except the part about the return to full capacity. 5 plants got a special authorization, not to return to full capacity, but to go slightly beyond the norms .
In fact, for instance, the 4 power plants on the Loire, can go on as the refrigerating system use much less water and warms it very slightly, but water is still needed !

Environmentalists disagree.
The matter is that the French government is in a catch22, politically and ecologically, from its own making.
An fact which gives a point to the idea of a supra national authority.
Another point: Migrants !
In West countries people wince to be polite, against migrants.
With the climate change, large parts of Africa, India, and so could become unlivable, while north Canada and Siberia open. .
It means hundred of millions of people to displace and to integrate in other countries, with all the problems it implies.
